Resumen del Editor

Schneider Family Book Award, 2007

Two years after being released from Camp Green Lake, Armpit is home in Austin, Texas, trying to turn his life around. But it's hard when you have a record, and everyone expects the worst from you. The only person who believes in him is Ginny, his 10-year-old disabled neighbor. Together, they are learning to take small steps. And he seems to be on the right path, until X-Ray, a buddy from Camp Green Lake, comes up with a get-rich-quick scheme. This leads to a chance encounter with teen pop sensation, Kaira DeLeon, and suddenly Armpit's life spins out of control, with only one thing for certain. He'll never be the same again.

In his first major novel since Holes, critically acclaimed novelist Louis Sachar uses his signature wit combined with a unique blend of adventure and deeply felt characters to explore issues of race, the nature of celebrity, the invisible connections that determine a person's life, and what it takes to stay on course. Doing the right thing is never a wrong choice, but a small step in the right direction.

I am soooo picky about my books and this year for my summer readying i chose this and i dont regret it

Loved it

Beautiful and engaging story from beginning to end. Was kinda hoping Theodore would get to speak to Kira again, though.

Glad I Tried This Book

I loved Holes. This book was great, too. It isn't much of a sequel, but it does follow two characters from Holes. Anyway, it is a great YA story for adults also.

Try to live better and let wrong thing you did go!

Adjust and take small steps for changing in order to become better. The story inspires young people to do the right thing. Don't do anything stupid again.

Louis Sachars Best Work

I truly believe this is one of if not my favorite book I've ever read by this author. It is truly compelling story and id say written in a rather different style then some of his more popular works that mainly star child characters.
